11 Signs You're Addicted To Pinterest
OVRGRND

It happens without you even realizing what you're doing. One minute, you're sending an important email or texting a friend -- and the next? You find yourself scrolling through an endless Pinterest feed. This, among many other reasons, is a tell-tale sign that you are addicted. If you're a true Pinterest addict...

1. You think you can DIY anything.

It can’t be that hard, right?

2. You’re planning a wedding and you’re either single, not engaged or already married.

Now, all I need is the groom!

3. Every one of your kids has a board dedicated to them.

Even if you don’t have kids, you already know they’ll be well dressed.

4. You can’t stop buying mason jars.

I could put Q-tips in this one and put a drink in this one and...

5. You can’t stop pinning to your workout board, yet you don’t even have a gym membership.

Maybe if I pin this workout to my board, I’ll get out of my bed and do it. Eh, probably not.

6. The only time you cook or bake is when you’re making a recipe from Pinterest.

And you go grocery shopping just to get the ingredients for a Pinterest recipe.

7. You have extremely high expectations for what your future house is going to look like.

Check out my “future home” board! I’m going to have all-white cabinets and a wrap-around front porch and...

8. You learned how to do your make-up through Pinterest tutorials.

Did you know you can use tape and a spoon to do a cat-eye?

9. Every time you’re with kids, you Pinterest different craft ideas.

I bet you’ve made a few toilet paper roll dragons in your lifetime.

10. You have a board for every holiday.

It’s never too early for Christmas!

11. You find yourself pinning at three am.

I can’t sleep now. I should be DIY-ing. Or working out. Or redoing my entire room.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
